Terif Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 July 26, 1942: Germany is not getting Jets, but has the better combat tactics : another 2 russian AFs killed in the german counterstrike - Russia down to 3 AFs. Nevertheless it is expensive for Germany to wage war against the already Jets 4 russian air - with its outdated lv 2 airplanes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellraiser Posted July 30, 2005 Author Share Posted July 30, 2005 Cutting off Brussels? Nope, Ike is there In return, allies kill a corps and capture the french mine cutting off the german corps which previously attacked (3 corps out of which 1 died) In the east, Russia is slowly giving ground - a lot of german troops in Russia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terif Posted July 30, 2005 Share Posted July 30, 2005 Cutting of Brussel - Yes, from supply. So it went down from 9 to 5 . Russia: German forces advancing, killing some corps in the process - Kharkov can now be attacked from 3 sides and should fall next turn. Timoshenko near Leningrad survives luckily 6 airstrikes - guess he will retreat now so Germany can conquer Leningrad and liberate Finland . West: Defence line formed in eastern France and western German, Allies build a defence line from Bordeaux to Paris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
